SYNOPSIS

9       UGsmooth --help
10           | --infile infile_name [options]...
11           | --flight flight_dir [options]...
12           | --serial dev_name --outfile outfile_name [options]...

DESCRIPTION

15       UGsmooth  is  a utility that reads GPS data in UGear format from a text
16       file, a directory containing flight data or from a device connected  to
17       the  serial  port,  parses it and sends it to a FlightGear instance for
18       replaying.
19

OPTIONS

21       --help Display usage information and exit.
22
23       --infile infile_name
24              Read GPS data from infile_name.
25
26       --flight flight_dir
27              Read GPS data from the flight directory named flight_dir.
28
29       --serial dev_name
30              Read GPS data from the serial device named dev_name.
31
32       --outfile outfile_name
33              Save the data retrieved from the device to outfile_name.
34
35       --hertz frequency
36              Specify the frequency to use for sending data to the  FlightGear
37              instance.  By default, events are sent at a frequency of 60 Hz.
38
39       --host hostname
40              Send the data to the FlightGear instance running on hostname.
41
42              If  --host  is not specified, the default is to send the data to
43              localhost.
44
45       --broadcast
46              Send flight data model and control data as broadcast packets.
47
48       --opengc-port port
49              Set the port OpenGC data should be sent to. By default, data  is
50              sent to port 6000.
51
52       --fdm-port port
53              Set  the  port  flight  data  model  data  should be sent to. By
54              default, data is sent to port 5505.
55
56       --ctrls-port port
57              Set the port control data should be sent to. By default, data is
58              sent to port 5506.
59
60       --groundtrack-heading
61              Calculate  the aircraft heading from the GPS velocity instead of
62              using the raw heading recorded by the device.
63
64       --ground-speed
65              Calculate the ground speed from  the  GPS  velocity  instead  of
66              using the raw speed recorded by the device.
67
68       --estimate-control-deflections
69              Estimate control deflections from the angular velocities instead
70              of using the raw deflections recorded by the device.
71
72       --altitude-offset meters
73              Add the specified offset (in meters) to  the  altitude  sent  to
74              FlightGear.
75
76       --skip-seconds seconds
77              Do not transmit the first seconds seconds of data.
78
79              This  option  is  ignored  when  reading  GPS data from a serial
80              device.
81
82       --no-real-time
83              Do not update the elapsed time.
84
85       --ignore-checksum
86              Do not discard data with invalid checksums.
87
88              This option is ignored when  reading  GPS  data  from  a  flight
89              directory.
90
91       --sg-swap
92              Activate  the  special  double swap logic for the (non-standard)
93              stargate double format.
94

EXIT STATUS

96       UGsmooth exits with 0 on success, with -1 if the syntax of the command-
97       line arguments is wrong or an error occurs.
